Re:

A try with a lighter fork, rideable but with a small inaesthetic space (perhaps the fork isn't really for an integrated headset :?: ).
Back to the older (and shortened) fork.

Re: 2006 Carraro Carbon/Titanium

wow! an Italian (from Padua, near Venice) Carraro Frame!
during the first 2000's Rewel (another great framebuilder near Bozen, in the middle of the dolomites) made the Titanium frame for Carraro... until 2005 if i remember well...
in 2006-2007 Carraro and Battaglin(from Marostica, near Vicenza) had on their catalogue a ti-carbon frame like this... also FullDynamix (the mtb brand of Battaglin) had proposed an amazing front 26" xc race in carbon and titanium...
sorry for all this Italian-pride argumentation...
I usually hate carbon frame, but this hybridization reminds me the time when i was a little bit young and i had too time to ride!!!
enjoy your ride!

Thanks
Don't know for the saddle, it's a second hand one, guessing a generic product (light and not too expensive) :?:
